About EAR
EAR (formerly Esoteric Audio Research) represents the groundbreaking work of legendary designer Tim de Paravicini, whose name has been synonymous with high-fidelity electronics since the 1970s. De Paravicini’s pioneering designs are not only found in EAR products but have also shaped the offerings of some of the most respected audio manufacturers worldwide. Many of his innovations have been cherished by discerning listeners for decades, earning a lasting place in the world of high-end audio.
Beyond consumer audio, de Paravicini has made significant contributions to professional recording and mastering. His tape machines, microphones, and other recording equipment have been trusted by iconic artists like Pink Floyd and Lenny Kravitz, as well as leading labels such as Altarus and Water Lily Acoustics. Renowned engineers like Robert Ludwig, Joe Gastwirt, and James Guthrie have relied on his designs. The Exchange, one of the world’s top mastering facilities in London, uses two full playback systems designed and built entirely by EAR. Even Mobile Fidelity Sound Labs depends on his LP cutting system and tape deck electronics.
Known for their extraordinary ability to reproduce sound with purity and precision, EAR amplifiers stand apart for their transparent, distortion-free performance. Tim de Paravicini’s research into ultrasonic resonances and the subjective effects of distortion has revolutionized amplifier design, allowing for a deeper understanding of how measurements relate to the listener’s experience. The result: EAR amplifiers are widely regarded as some of the most accurate, musical amplifiers available today.

Product Description
Lehmann Black Cube SE II – Precision Phono Stage for True Audiophiles
The Black Cube SE II builds on the acclaimed SE circuit, upgraded with superior sockets and an adjustable bass filter, allowing you to fine-tune your system to your personal listening preferences. Designed for maximum musical engagement, it delivers the sensation that your favorite recordings were crafted just for you, bringing instruments and vocals closer than ever.
Tailored for Every System
Compatible with nearly all MM and MC cartridges, the Black Cube SE II includes solder-free slots for custom impedance adjustments, plus an extra hardwired plug-in location for immediate flexibility. Optional matching resistors can be provided with your order at no extra cost, making it easy to optimize the phono stage for your system.
Audiophile-Grade Audio Circuitry
At its core, a high-precision passive RIAA filter network sits between two linear gain stages, built with surge-proof, narrow-tolerance polypropylene capacitors. This design preserves transients, dynamics, and timbres with exceptional clarity. Professional-grade input stages reduce noise while enhancing precision and power. Additional modules handle hum, high-frequency interference, and random voltage suppression, and the double-sided audio board ensures a low-interference signal path.
Dependable PWX Power Supply
The external PWX power supply features a custom toroidal transformer with static shielding, providing stable, safe, and powerful operation. Gold-plated Neutrik XLR connectors maintain secure connections, while shielded cables and mechanically damped aluminum housings minimize vibrations and interference.
Elegant Design
With a choice of silver, black, or chrome-plated front panels, the Black Cube SE II combines audiophile-grade performance with a refined aesthetic that looks as good in your HiFi rack as it sounds in your system.
Professional Endorsement
Known for its neutral, natural sound, Lehmann equipment is trusted by professional recording studios and music experts worldwide. The Black Cube SE II offers a high-fidelity listening experience that reveals every nuance in your favorite recordings.
Note: The sonic profile of Lehmann gear is perhaps the most neutral we can find. This brand is quite popular with our professional music/recording studio clients.
Reviews
AUDIO
“Upgraded to the SE version by the PWX, it was definitely poking the fire again like almost no other phono pre in its price range. Merciless heavy rock by Vanilla Fudge or massive bigband attacks by Count Basie were just about to blaze through the listening room. Pimped in such a hot manner, the Lehmann Black Cube SE II is state-of-the-art.”

“This is a true audiophile phono stage and, partnered with equipment of equal quality, the results are remarkable. Indeed, the SE II is difficult to fault even compared to the competition in a much higher price bracket. The exceptionally low background noise allied to a fabulous rhythmic and tonal rendition makes it worthy of consideration for those seeking the most detail from their vinyl without having to make a hyperspace price jump.”
